Really recommend you have a solid background in accounting/tax. One, if not the most academically challenging course at FLETC. ...Job opened today on USAJOBS. Looking to hire approx. 250 agents in 2019. Just know that this is a long hiring process, taking 1 to 1.5 years on average to on-board. Really recommend you have a solid background in accounting/tax. One, if not the most academically challenging course at FLETC. 80% required passing score for all graded exams. Very fast paced course. Good luck!

Fri, 01 Feb 2019 18:38:02 GMTAs many of you perhaps looking to have a career in federal law enforcement have seen, we're not immune to politics or partisanship. Unfortunately. We are but pawns in the game of life, some of us more so than others.

That being said, for those of you who haven't been turned off by the recent record breaking shutdown, specifically of you interested in Homeland Security Investigations aka HSI, there's good news on the horizon. Well, if we're able to secure a budget that is. See my earlier comment about some being more of a pawn than others, was referencing the Department of Homeland Security. The department under which one will find such hot button items such as the securing of the homeland, be it via a wall or some other structure and the removal of folks who either didn't belong in the U.S. or committed some infraction leading to the forfeiture of their status with the U.S. by what we know as ERO, but you know as ICE. But, that's a different subject for a different day. Now, back to HSI.

If a budget can be secured for any length of time not measured in single digit weeks, HSI is looking to bring on 300 new special agents SA's) and 350 new Intelligence Research Specialists (IRS's). Please, though admittedly it may be hard, do not allow this recent rounds of political posturing and infighting discourage you from throwing your figurative hat into the ring. We, you, them and us are still needed to provide a service to the country which only a very few relative to the populations, can or want to preform. Screw both the politicians and the news networks talking head "experts". If the say Customs and Border Patrol as the name for Customs and Border Protection, a simple Google search would have told them the actual name of the agency and thus, please, disregard anything they have to say regarding the subject of the border in their "expert" opinion. BIG still has no idea what a border guard is, TSA officers are officers and not agents. Beyond conducting his background and security check, the FBI had no authority to investigate Kavanaugh's accusers, despite the cries from congress, because it fell under a local jurisdictions authority. Remember, your average federal LEO knows far more about the law, statutory authority and a myriad of other things than someone who simply won a popularity contest. Which applies to the vast majority of congress, regardless of their or your political affiliation.

But that is BIG's rant and he will now climb down from his soap box and again reiterate the following.

1) Despite the vitriol being thrown and the historic number of days of this past shutdown federal law enforcement is still a noble and worthy career choice.
2) Find the agency and mission/s which are right for you.
3) HSI is looking to hire 300 SA's and 350 IRS's.
